This aluminium tie rod set is an RC-scale steering linkage upgrade made for use with TRAXXAS Latrax Rally 1/18 models and is supplied as a 6pcs set. These metal replacement linkages deliver a firmer steering connection than standard plastic parts while retaining scale-correct proportions.
In operation these tie rods form part of the steering linkage and will affect toe and steering response when used in setup changes. The "-0.5 Degree" tag refers to the steering geometry characteristic of these links and is intended for incremental tuning adjustments rather than a single sweeping alignment change.
Installation notes: these components replace factory linkages that share the same attachment style on Latrax Rally 1/18 kits. During fitment, check that left and right lengths are equal for neutral steering, ensure threaded joints are fully engaged, and confirm there is no contact with the servo or suspension travel once installed. Periodic inspection of joints and fasteners helps keep steering predictable.
Maintenance and tuning: treat these as serviceable metal parts, inspect connection points for wear, and make small, measured geometry changes so effects are trackable. Metal links will show different wear and flex behaviour compared with plastics, so adapt your setup and driving expectations accordingly.
